When Catherine Kwok first walked into Renewed After 50 at the start of 2020, she wasn’t quite sure what to expect. Like many of us, life had been busy — working full-time left little room for regular exercise. But as she started to feel the effects of ageing, she realised that staying active was no longer optional — it was essential.
“I wanted to take control of my health and make sure I was moving properly as I got older,” Catherine says. “Exercise became more important than ever.”
Around the same time, Catherine had a DEXA scan, a test that measures bone density. The results were concerning: she had osteoporosis, a condition that weakens bones and increases the risk of fractures. It was a wake-up call — but instead of feeling discouraged, Catherine made a choice. She joined a structured, supportive exercise program designed for adults over 50 and committed to her health journey.
Consistency Pays Off
Fast forward to a recent bone density scan — Catherine’s results had improved. She had a 4% increase in bone density, a remarkable achievement, especially considering her doctor noted that the medications prescribed when she was diagnosed could stop further bone loss but wouldn’t increase bone density. The only thing that could have made the difference? Her dedication to exercise.
“4% might not sound like much,” Catherine says, “but my specialist told me it’s actually quite significant. That’s when I realised my hard work was really paying off.”
